Teams UDguarded.

There were five or six cases of this
kind before Mayor Brown this morn
rng, and, with one or two exceptions,
all were fined So. Some people think
the mayor is carrying this thing too
far, but if GROWERS will leave self out
of mind few minutes, they will real
ize the necessity of the mayors action.
The prccauiion which is being taken
saves the loss of much property and
perhaps life. Only few DAYS ago
Mr.. Marion Powers lost his life by the
running away of team; and it is bet
ter to make mistake in arrests than to
allow parties to leave their teams I'M
guarded on The crowded public streets.
The mayor is right, and the HERALD is
riyht behind his back on this question.
At the rate parties are being arrested
it will not be long until every driver OF
a team in the city will have a twenty
five pound weight attached to his
horse. Thcref re, keep the ball rolling.

MATURING CANNOT BE OVER
DONE,

The venerable Peter Henderson thinks
manuring cannot be overdone, and says
1t is great bluLder to attempt to grow
vegetable crops without the use of man
ures of the various kinds. / never yet
saw soils of any kind that had borne a
crop of vegetables that would produce as
good a crop the next season without the
use Of manure, no matter how rich the
soil may be thought to be. An illustra-
ton OF this came under my observation
last season. One of my neighbors, a
market gardner of twenty years expert
ence, and whose grounds have always
been perfect model of productiveness,
had it in prospect to run sixty foot
street through his grounds, thinking his
land sufficiently rich to carry through a
crop of cabbages without manure, he
ing guanO on that portion on which the
street was to be, but on each side he
sowed guanO at the rate of POO pounds
to the acre, and planted the whole with
early cabbages. The effect was the most
marked l ever saw; that portion on
which the guano had been used sold of
readily at Sl2 per hundred, or about 81,
400 per acre, both price and crop being
more than the average; but the portion
from which the guano had been withheld
hardly averaged So per hundred. The
street occupied fully an acre of ground,
50 that my friend actually lost over ST.
$50 in crop by Withholding $50 for man.
ure. Another neighbor, with a lease only
one year to run, also unwisely concluded
it would be foolish to waste manure on
his last crop and so planted and sowed
all without; the result was, as his expert
ence should have taught him, crop OF
inferior quality in every article grown
and loss on his eight acres of probably
81 900 for thar season. National Stock

LANGSliAN FOWLS.

The Langshans were introduced to the
Western world from their native China
by way of England. They were first ex-
hibited for prizes at the Crystal palace,
London, in 1871, after which occasion
they were imported to the United States.
In style the Langshan is similar to the
Cochin China, but, unlike the latter, its
color is almost always solidly black.
One of the valuable qualities of the
Langshan fowl is large size-cocks tip
ping the scales at nine to twelve pounds,
and hens from six to nine. The flesh is
delicate in favor, and is exceedingly
white, and the fowls are most excellent
for the table.
AT Matching the Langshans are parti-
colored, black and white in nearly equal
proportions, but by the time they reach
three months of age their distinctive
black color has been put on. Their legs
are feathered to the outer toes, and are
of purplish-black. The cocks comb is
bright red, as are the ear lobes and wat
ties of both himself and the hen, these
latter points hanging well down. These
hens are good layers and kindly sitters,
with fine, motherly traits; they are
hardy, easy to raise and keep, thriving
well when running at large, or in con-
finement, and have been very successful
in proving their right to the considera-
ton of breeders and fancers, wherever
they have found their way American

The lime TO BUY.

There is a time for all things; and the
time to buy fowls is in the fall of the
year, when breeders of large flocks are
anxious to sell them. One can pur-
chase pair or trio to begin with reason
ably cheap, and if the breeder is an old
and experienced hand at the business he
would mate them for the purchaser. 1t
would be best to purchase early Matched
birds for breeding, and if the male or
female is year older the better, for late
Matched birds are not fully developed
the following spring for breeding pur-
poses, though they may show precocious
qualities. When buying fowls, if you
have no choice in the matter, get breed
suitable to your place, surroundings and
facilities; but if not, procure the breed
you like best if other conditions are
favorable. The breed one likes best is
apt to receive the best care and attention,
besides affording pleasure and crafty
ing the tastes of the keeper. Have your
quarters ready for their occupation, and
begin rightly and in good earnest in the
beginning, for good beginning is hall

THE FUTURE DAIRY COW.

A Pennsylvania dairy farmer writes in
the New York Tribune: The search for
"the future cow" is chase after twill
o the wisp," which eludes the deceived
follower. 1t will pay far better to Guilt
waite the present cow as well as possible.
In this respect 'man never is, but always
to be, blest." There are good cows of
every race and lineage; and poor ones
very poor ones. Good, bad and indifler-
ent apply even to the most highly vaunt-
ed breeds. The business OF the daryman
is to chose his favorte kind; he will
probably find the well-selected native
quite satisfactory, or, if lie has money to
spare, with an expensive taste, he may
do quite as well with the Jersey, Ayr
shire, Swiss, Red Polled or the large
Dutch COW but these he must use with
discretion and skill or he will not be suit
ed. Whatever the kind, the very best
should be done with it only the best
COWS kept and the best calves reared
and in few years the value of the herd
may easily be doubled
